Bloodstock have now released their day tickets (as of yesterday)! Tickets will be priced at £60 (plus booking fee) and are available at http://bloodstock.seetickets.com. Four-day ‘weekend tickets with camping’ are also still available, priced £139 (plus booking fee). Children’s weekend tickets are just £35 (+ booking fee) and under 4’s go free!  Weekend tickets are selling faster than ever this year and may well sell out entirely before festival weekend, so don’t delay if you want to guarantee access to the UK’s best metal weekender!

One thing that sets Bloodstock apart from other festivals is festival founder, Paul Raymond Gregory’s on-site RAM Gallery. In addition to showing selections from his own world-renowned portfolio, Paul invites some of his favourite rock & metal-related artists to exhibit. This year he welcomes Berlin-based artist and illustrator, Eliran Kantor, who’ll show six pieces of work. Eliran has created sleeve art for numerous metal artists including Testament, Soulfly, Iced Earth, and Hatebreed. Returning to the RAM Gallery in 2017 is Orange County artist, Christian Sloan Hall, who show a few of the many pieces of work he’s created for our Friday headliner, Amon Amarth. Christian will be in the gallery to sign limited edition prints, which will be available for sale, so come by, say hello and snap up something extra special for your wall.  

Also exhibiting will be Daniel P. Carter; artist, musician, and presenter of the BBC Radio 1 Rock Show. Dan studied at the prestigious St Martins School of Art and has created sleeves for many albums, most recently Me And That Man’s debut (Nergal from Behemoth’s side project), ‘Songs of Love And Death’. On the photography side, the RAM Gallery is also thrilled to welcome celebrated rock photographer, Paul Harries, who’ll show six photographic pieces from his incredible portfolio.  Adding a new flavour to the gallery this year is Heathen Waxworks. Their hand-carved 3D candleware in a range of unique designs are based on RAM Gallery-appropriate mythical and esoteric themes; Nordic Storm, Pagan Woodland, Native American, Hammered Horror and Satanic Majesty. 

Lastly but not leastly, regular RAM Gallery contributor and luthier Cynosure, creator of hand-made guitars as art, will be exhibiting two brand new bespoke instruments. One of the new instruments is Saxon-inspired and will sit on the ‘Saxon Wall’ beside pieces of Paul Gregory’s original artwork for the British metal stalwarts. The other….well, that’ll be a surprise. Be sure to drop into the gallery to see it!

The finals for this year’s ‘Metal 2 The Masses’ campaign steam-roll on and Bloodstock can now reveal the next round of winners landing a slot on the New Blood stage. 

Livening up proceedings on Saturday are Merseyside winners Reaper (www.facebook.com/OfficialReaperUK), Nottingham champions Raised By Owls (www.facebook.com/RaisedByOwls), Burnley victors Ward XVI (www.facebook.com/WardXVI) and Decrepit Monolith (www.facebook.com/decrepitmonolith) who landed the top spot in Newcastle. 

The heavy riffage of Prognosis (www.facebook.com/Prognosis1) who took first prize in Manchester, are added to Sunday’s bill. Bloodstock has also decided to extend an invitation to three other exceptional bands, so performing on Friday, are Dorset’s sludge / groove metallers Thuum (https://youtu.be/tyJfpdbE9Vs) and Carlisle’s runners up, the prog / tech death Blood Thread (https://youtu.be/73sYRntuB94). Dublin’s second-placed Na Cruthne (https://youtu.be/Q5QzFgZFMq0) also join the bill Sunday, bringing a unique blend of groove & black metal, but with influences from traditional Irish, Scottish, and Breton music.

Bloodstocks pleased to reveal that the festival’s official charity partner for 2017 will once again be Teenage Cancer Trust. Since partnering up in 2011, Bloodstock is very proud that over £50,000 has been raised to date to help young people facing cancer. Don’t miss the charity’s stall in the market area, where you can purchase Teenage Cancer Trust merchandise and join in the popular ‘T-Shirt Amnesty’ (bring your unwanted band t-shirts to donate or swap).  

Bloodstock will take place at Catton Park, Derbyshire on 10th-13th August 2017.  Pick up tickets at http://bloodstock.seetickets.com.
